Massive amyloid deposition in pancreatic vipoma: a case report.

Pathology 1996 November

Amyloid deposition has been reported in association with insulinomas of the pancreas, but as far as the available literature suggests, it has not been reported in VIPomas. Islet associated polypeptide (IAPP) and calcitonin are both candidates for the amyloidogenic peptide in this case, based on observations in other tumors.
